Stratasys (SSYS) to Make H350 3D Printers for Gotz Maschinenbau

Read MoreHide Full Article

Stratasys (SSYS - Free Report) announced that it received an order from its existing customer Götz Maschinenbau, a German service bureau, for four of its high-speed H350 3D printers. This investment will make Götz’s total fleet size to six systems, making it the leading user of Selective Absorption Fusion (SAF) technology among service bureaus in the European, Middle Eastern and African markets.

The installation, due over the next 1.5 years, is likely to meet the increasing customer demand for high-quality end-use parts. According to Philipp Götz, the owner of Götz Maschinenbau, the SAF technology, an industrial-grade additive manufacturing solution that delivers production-level throughput for end-use parts, is ideal for maintaining the high quality and cost-effective standards expected by its customers.

The Stratasys H350 3D printer delivers accurate, production-grade parts with best-in-class consistency. It allows users to choose their build preparation software platforms to suit their business needs like materials, workflow, production and costs. Interestingly, the product itself is equipped with around a dozen parts 3D printed with SAF technology. Designed for high-volume, short-run production, the H350 printer offers an extremely reliable manufacturing solution at lower costs and leads time than injection molding.

Stratasys has been scaling newer heights across all its business segments. It has been benefiting from an increase in demand for 3D-printed materials, and its focus on product launches and strategic partnership agreements or acquisitions.

Yesterday, the company revealed that Nano Dimension, an Israel-based 3D printed electronics systems and additive manufacturing company, has made a revised unsolicited, non-binding indicative proposal to acquire Stratasys for $19.55 per share in cash. This was followed by Mar 22’s event of Stratasys board’s unanimous rejection of an unsolicited non-binding indicative proposal from the Israel-based firm to acquire the 3D manufacturer for $18.00 per share in cash. 

In February 2022, Stratasys signed an agreement with Ricoh USA, Inc. to provide on-demand 3D-printed anatomic models for clinical settings. Earlier in the same month, it launched a first-ever monolithic, full-color 3D printed permanent dentures solution, TrueDent, specifically designed for the fabrication of dental appliances, including removable dentures and temporaries. This transformative solution for the dental industry, not only simplifies the denture manufacturing process, but also lowers the costs, allowing for dentures and temporaries to be produced much faster, achieving incredible aesthetics.

Last year, Stratasys enhanced its dental solution portfolio with the launch of Origin One Dental 3D printer, which provides comprehensive additive manufacturing solutions to the dental industry. In the same year, it launched a cybersecurity solution for additive manufacturing named ProtectAM and unveiled J5 MediJet, a compact medical 3D printer that integrates multiple applications into one system, enabling the creation of intricate 3D anatomical models.
